roast that at a
recent meetir
of the Califor
nia Medical association, Dr.
Daniel Stowens, while report
ing studies of 285 children
ith acute leukemia, noted
that in 25 per cent of thtro
ttiere wis some memVJt? f
tee family who had dirfcs.
Among non-leukemic chMren
such a relation to diabetes
was found in only 4 per cent
of the cases.
Also interesting was the
fact that 10 per cent of the
leukemic children had dia
betes, and all of tfe leubeaifc
children had abnormai cells
in their islets of Lanobrinaas.
This is tht abnormality fourfa
in all but some rare cae f
Hiahetos. Wht doei this
mean? It means thet there is
some relation between the
laVn dise&es that e must
row study with care; which
reminds me that recently it
was found that quite a few
mongoloid mentally retarded
children have leukemia. Even
more of them have leukemia
like abnormalities in their
white blood cells.
We doctors often learn
something about rare diseases
by studying these strange re
lationships. Recently I helped
open up one of these fascinat
ing fields in medicine by
making a record of all of the
